According to The Hollywood Reporter, sources say Quentin Tarantino’s tenth and final film, The Movie Critic, is being prepped to be filmed this fall. A logline has not yet been revealed, but sources claim the story takes place in Los Angeles in the late 1970s with a female lead.

The Hollywood Reporter has speculated that the film may be centered around Pauline Kael, an American film critic who wrote for The New Yorker for many years and died in 2001.

Sources say the project does not have a studio home but could go out to studios very soon, with one of the frontrunners possibly being Sony. Sony Pictures Releasing distributed Tarantino’s Django Unchained and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Tarantino told Playboy in 2012 that he thinks movie directors get out of touch as they age. 

“I just don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker. I want to stop at a certain point. Directors don’t get better as they get older. Usually, the worst films in their filmography are those last four at the end. I am all about my filmography, and one bad film f—s up three good ones.…When directors get out-of-date, it’s not pretty. I’m on a journey that needs to have an end and not be about me trying to get another job. I want this artistic journey to have a climax. I want to work toward something. You stop when you stop, but in a fanciful world, 10 movies in my filmography would be nice. I’ve made seven. If I have a change of heart, if I come up with a new story, I could come back. But if I stop at 10, that would be okay as an artistic statement.” (Via Entertainment Weekly)
